“I told you I love you, right?”
I nod. “Minutes ago, Hunt.”
He nods, eyes faraway like he’s thinking about something that could’ve happened. When his eyes come back to me they’re so blue, so bright that I didn’t know how I couldn’t see it, the depth of his love for me.
“Thanks for saying yes, baby,” he says, the fingers of the hand holding my hand stroking over the black diamond (for real this time) he got me when he proposed.
I smile at him, and wrap my arm more firmly around his shoulders. “Thanks for asking, Superman. I love you, you know?”
Inside, my nerdy heart is beating fast and I can’t wait to hear his next words.
“I know, baby. I know.”
